Summary
As a teacher with an existentialist approach, I prioritize fostering individual growth and purpose in my students. My classroom is a dynamic space where students are encouraged to explore, question, and take ownership of their learning journey. By integrating real-world connections and emphasizing collaboration, I aim to inspire a love for learning and instill a sense of purpose in each student. Extending this commitment beyond the classroom, I am enthusiastic about actively participating in and contributing to extracurricular activities that further enhance students' development and school experience.
